<br />The Redwood Highlands Company, by its Secretary, Mrs. Chapman, asked permission to divide

<br />I.
<br />motion of Councilman Fletcher, seconded by Councilman 'Hohn, permission was granted
<br />according to the request.
<br />At.this time there came up for discussion the question of granting to the Humane Society,
<br />for its Pet and Hobby Show, the use of the Veterans' Building on Mazes Plaza. The
